Need help for my single Fd. 1.5 or 2.0 WAY lsd

Hello guys i have been running the car lately in streets and i have go to the drag

strip 2 times. the car was tuned with the gt42 and pulls 619 hp, it doesnt matter

1.5 will only lock up under acceleration, 2 way will lock under accel/ or decel, more for drifting. And sounds like you need suspension and tires to help you, not a diff.

yea a two will sound and somewhat feel like a welded diff. you'll prob want to get a 1.5 if you going to drive it often on the streets. 2 ways can get very annoying driving them on the street

Loosen that suspension up to make it set the weight on the rear wheels.

Touching up on what everyone else says:

Loosen up the rear suspension-since you have coilovers I'd loosen them up all the way, maybe check to see if your springs are preloaded at all.

If you're having any wheel hop look into a pinion snubber.

With that much HP you're still going to have a little wheel spin with drag radials, maybe you should look into full slicks?

Diff can help a little.
